question, "should the united states give up on haiti?" ray. >> the question, i think, is posed in a moral sense, "should the u.s. do a particular, make a particular decision regarding haiti?" i don't think that is the way the question should be posed. "will the u.s. give up on haiti?" and i'm afraid that the answer may be that the u.s. over time, will tend to give up on haiti because the problems that it faces there and the reconstruction process dealing with an impoverished country with low levels of human capital and financial capital, given its tendency to move towards political division, ah, the insecurities there and the competing interests that we face around the world in a, in a period of physical retrenchment, i think will lead us, eventually, to more or less give up or to lose patience with haiti once again and see it fall back into a certain era of neglect. but i think there is, underneath, a certain desire of the american people, a commitment by the patient diaspora, and hopefully the haitian people themselves, to come back from this terrible tragedy and, and continue forward.

was unable to complete a confidence building nuclear deal with the united states back in 2009 i think because of the domestic opposition to him. a major reason for it. but there's still one area afghanistan, where there are some overlapping interests and where i think the united states can be more proactive than it has been. obama has really pivoted from engagement now to containment and sanctions and i think u.s. can be a little more creative in this area. iran has four main goals in afghanistan. one is to keep the taliban from completely taking over again, even though it plays a double or triple gain and give some support to taliban, it doesn't want taliban in the country. second is the extend the flow of drugs which has made iran the most addicted country in the world. a third is to do something about the sunni area which feeds a sunni in iran's own beluche area. and finally, iran wants the united states to withdraw is troops from afghanistan although i would think they would be prepared to have some limits provided there's assurance this would not

time the united states has gone into intervene in the middle east there's been a long-term consequence to the perception of our position that's been negative. >> charlie: ann marie, tell me what the options are. >> the first best option is a negotiated solution that gets qaddafi and his family out of office and out of the country and that is actually still a possibility on the table. he made an offer, obviously it's hard to know who's saying what but the fact is we've been putting a lot of pressure on him both outside the country in terms of sanctions and in terms of diplomatic pressure and telling him and everybody around him they'll be accountable for this long term. and a lot of what we're been doing is still putting pressure on him to get him out and if we can do that the rebels negotiating with him that's the first best solution. after that i do think we have to consider a no-fly zone and go to a no-fly zone if we're requested to do that the provisional government and have agreement, certainly if the security council were to agree but if we're requested by the rebel government and
